For Wolf Group, sustainable waste management is equally important in every department and to every employee. The group has ambitious targets for reducing, reusing, recycling, and recovering waste and we are proud to be achieving them one step at a time.<\/p>\n
100% of the residue from our in-house plastic production is reused in the Wolf Group\u2019s Tallinn factory. Special plastic equipment crushes the waste and gives it a second chance as new plastic parts. Wolf Group\u2019s patented spatula<\/a> is an excellent example of waste recovery<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Wolf Group has gained the highest possible rating in the waste audit performed by a third-party partner company. Waste sorting by type on site is the norm for our company. Cardboard, plastic, film, hazardous waste and more \u2013 all of it is carefully sorted and separately collected before being sent for recycling<\/strong>. Behind these good results is continuous work to raise the awareness of our employees.<\/p>\n Packaging materials are reused<\/strong> multiple times in different departments.<\/p>\n Wolf Group aims to minimise its environmental impact by substituting hazardous chemicals, thereby reducing<\/strong> quantities of hazardous waste. See Penosil Sustainable Construction range<\/a> and Wolf Group\u2019s innovative formulas<\/a>. Upgrading our production processes is constantly on our radar.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n Re-use<\/strong> | Any operation whereby products or components that are not waste are used again for the same purpose for which they were conceived<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recovery<\/strong> | Any operation the principal result of which is waste serving a useful purpose by replacing other materials which would otherwise have been used to fulfil a particular function, or waste being prepared to fulfil that function, in the plant or in the wider economy<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recycling<\/strong> | Any recovery operation whereby waste materials are reprocessed into products, materials or substances whether for the original or other purposes, including the reprocessing of organic material but excluding energy recovery and reprocessing into materials that are to be used as fuels or for backfilling operations<\/p>\n\n\n\n Source: Directive 2008\/98\/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Terminology Re-use | Any operation whereby products or components that are not waste are used again for the same purpose for which they were conceived Recovery | Any operation the principal result of which is waste serving a useful purpose by replacing other materials which would otherwise have been used to fulfil a particular function, […]","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":24577,"menu_order":12,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/template-wse.php","meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
